Lyrics
i will cross o'er the river, and rest in the shade of the trees, there's someone 'cross that river, i can hear familiar voices calling me, i know i'll miss my family, i hope that they won't worry for too long, 'cause it's only 'cross the river, and i'll be that much closer to my home, i will cross o'er the river, i've got to make it to the other shore, there's something 'cross that river, that's powerful and cannot be ignored, i can see the grass is greener, a perfect spot is waiting there for me, i will cross o'er the river, and rest in the shade of the trees, no, it's not so big a river, it's not so deep and wide, i don't think i'll be coming back, from the other side, no, it's not so big a river, it's not so deep and wide, but i know i won't be coming back, from the other side, i will cross o'er the river, and rest in the shade of the trees, there's someone 'cross that river, i can hear familiar voices calling me, i know i'll miss my family, and i hope that they won't worry for too long, 'cause it's only 'cross the river, and i'll be that much closer to my home, it's only 'cross the river, and i'll be that much closer to my home
